About

The forest was pitch-black, suffocating, and alive with ancient shadows. For months, a harsh famine had ravaged the land, driving the pack to the brink of starvation. Tonight, their hunt had failed once more—and to make matters worse, their proud Alpha had been severely wounded in the shadows. According to ancient wolf lore, a shifter can imprint on only one soul in a lifetime; if that soul accepts them, their inner beast becomes immensely stronger. Dante William, who took leadership at a young age after his father's passing, had never loved, never formed a bond, nor let anyone close to his hardened heart. He was returning home empty-handed and bleeding, unaware that destiny was waiting for him in the dark. That was until a desperate cry pierced the silent night—a maiden's voice trapped against the cold stone, cornered by a massive, towering bear.
